The Uganda People’s Congress party (UPC) has called for the unconditional release of the youth arrested during the "March to Parliament" protests, stating that they were peaceful and lawful as stipulated in the constitution of Uganda.
Uganda People’s Congress party has said that whereas this year’s Heroes’ Day theme, “Hail our Heroes, a Secure Uganda is Now Reality,” implies that Uganda is safe, Uganda still has a long way to go to be secure.
